The present study is concerned with the removal of copper powder from aqueous solution by cementation on a stationary disc placed inside an agitated vessel. The influence of several parameters on the rate of cementation, such as initial copper sulphate concentration, impeller rotational speed, presence of surfactant (Triton X-100), distance between the disc and the impeller, type of blade turbine and presence of baffles, has been investigated. The rate of cementation was found to increase with increasing impeller rotational speed and initial copper sulphate concentration. On the other hand, the rate decreases with increasing distance between the disc and the impeller. The rate of cementation was inhibited in solutions containing Triton X-100. Performance of a four-blade 90° turbine with regard to the rate of copper cementation was superior to the performance of a four-blade 45° pitched turbine. The present data can be correlated in terms of mass transfer coefficient of cementation asSh=0.905 Sc0.33 Re0.89 (d/l)0.41 (four-blade 90° turbine);Sh=0.815 Sc0.33Re0.79 (d/l)0.47 (four-blade 45° pitched turbine),for the conditions 2035<Sc<2810 and 35, 000<Re<179, 000.
